In trying to describe how I feel it should work, I started playing
around with the Search function again. And on reflection, perhaps there
isn't really anything that can be done to improve things within the
constraints of the hardware. (I'm very used to Lazy Search on the
standard remote, but of course for that to work requires some sort of
text-entry keypad).

I think possibly the way I will use Search on the Jive will be to
select just the first letter, then pick from the artists listed on the
next screen. A slight issue here is that it finds all artists where any
word starts with the given letter. For example, if I search on "P", it
shows "Deep Purple" as well as "Pink Floyd". I'd expect to search on
"D" to get "Deep Purple". Perhaps what might help is if there was an
additional option in SqueezeCenter's "Search Within Words" setting: as
well as "Search Beginning of Words" and "Search Within Words", a new
option of "Search Beginning of First Word Only" might be worthwhile?

That said, if scrolling acceleration works really well, the Search
function could just become redundant.
